Our team looks at both user interfaces and application programming interfaces (APIs) to focus on identifying any exploitable vulnerabilities in applications before hackers discover them.

These tests seek to identify expected functionality, reliability, performance, and security. Penetration testing simulates an attack on the application to determine if any security flaws are present in the environment and understand the level of risk.

There are several stages in a thorough application pen testing methodology. While some of the steps can be done with automation, the best penetration testing combines automated and manual techniques — just as highly motivated hackers will do.

To identify critical application-centric vulnerabilities, our testers will first look to gather information about the app and its environment. Next, they will model threats, analyze vulnerabilities, and work to exploit those vulnerabilities. After determining what happens post-exploitation, the testers will provide clear, comprehensive reporting that helps you prioritize the next steps for remediation.

The overall time depends on the size and complexity of the in-scope application(s). That said, most tests take anywhere from one week to four weeks, start to finish.

An application or API penetration test can give you valuable insight into the security posture of your application assets so you are able to fix them before hackers are able to cause serious damage by exploiting them.

We get this question a lot and it’s not easy to answer until some level of scoping has been performed. Our scoping process is quick, online, and painless. But overall, the complexity of the application will ultimately determine its cost. For example, when determining the work effort, we take the following into account: dynamic pages, API endpoints, and requests, user roles/permissions, the overall number of pages, etc.

Vulnerability assessments do not involve exploitation while penetration testing goes well beyond a vulnerability assessment and into exploitation and post-exploitation phases.

While cloud and on-premise applications may have different architectures, both can contain vulnerabilities that pose a serious business risk. It doesn’t matter whether it lives under your desk, in your data center, or in the cloud—if an application is used in your business it should be included in your security program.
